We welcome you to invite your family and friends, including children to this heartwarming tribute. In the past, some people have brought their families and friends to honor their loved one. Others have come alone. It is a warm and welcoming gathering. We celebrate our shared vision and honor the memory of our loved ones. There will be beautiful music and speakers who will share their personal stories of loss and how the dragonfly story gave them comfort and hope during their time of deep grief. During the celebration there will also be a special memorial ceremony to honor those who have died.
